Family History

Chapter 3 and 4

Fun fact: the pic for this was supposed to just be a rough sketch for the real pic... but I was too lazy. While it's a bit messy, I'm pretty pleased with this, so it doesn't matter. From left to right, it's Al, Ed, then Lily. ;3

Remember: John Edward Elric and Matt Alphonse Elric. I mainly refer to them as Ed and Al, so make sure you know John is Ed, and Matt is Al.

"Are you serious?!" Ed growled at his little brother, who was now pretty red-faced.

"Yes..."

"Why did you TELL people about this?!"

"Because it is something incredible, is it not?" Al defended himself.

"But now your friends probably all think you are crazy!"

"Slightly."

"Never mind, you ARE crazy! My brother is crazy! What will I do with my life?" he exclaimed dramatically before facepalming.

"Oh hey, Al." Lily interrupted their conversation with her entrance. "I wanted to thank you for finding that link! I am just so amazed by it! I nearly screamed when I opened it!" Ed started fuming at his brother again.

"I can't believe I fell for that stupid Pluto thing!" He bit into his sandwich violently.

"That's your own fault, Brother, not mine," Al chuckled.

"So what are you guys gonna do now?" she asked.

"...I don't know. What are we gonna do?" the younger brother said to the older.

"Leave it alone!"

"What?! We just found out someone fake is actually real, and RELATED to us, and we are just going to leave it alone?!"

"Yes! This is stupid, and there's nothing we can do with this information!"

"Except maybe figure out more about what they did with their lives after Conqueror of Shamballa? Learn what you'll look like when you're an old guy? We could maybe practice transmutation circles? We could become famous in the FMA community!" Lily listed.

"We should get out of this before we become obsessed!" Ed hissed.

"I think it's too late for that," she mused, mainly to herself.

"Hey." Some guy they all faintly recognized came up to the table. "You are the Elrics, right?"

"Yeah. What of it?" Ed huffed.

"I heard that you guys thought some stupid TV character is real." He gave a gross smirk.

"Where'd you hear that?" Ed asked with sincere curiosity. Rumors never spread about them, much less so quickly. The stranger ignored the question.

"That makes me wonder if you are all so nerdy it's affecting your sanity."

"We aren't nerds!" he spat out angrily.

"What am I supposed to think? You all have the highest scores in our grades, plus take all the advanced classes. You probably also do something stupid like orchestra or debate team, and now you also are anime geeks? You are nerds in more than one way!" He threw his arms up as if in exasperation.

"Hey!" Lily stood up quickly. "I don't take advanced classes or extracurricular activities! Don't stick me into the nerd category!" She sat back down, folding her arms up and pouting aggressively. The brothers and bully stared at her blankly.

"That's the part that upsets you?" Al questioned.

"That's the part I'm willing to defend against." She shrugged.
